Would you give up on somebody who didn’t want to get help?

🪐 E.T 🪐

Let’s say somebody you care about is suffering, but doesn’t want to get help because they are either scared, have no motivation/hope, don’t think they have a problem etc. Would you give up on trying to encourage or help them? -

This could apply to a lot of different situations and I understand that the answers may be different for each issue, here’s a few it could apply to:

- mental health issues

- suicidal thoughts / feelings / behaviours or even attempts

- addiction

- abusive relationship / domestic violence

- self harm

- eating disorders
